Abstract
Conference Title: 2014 IEEE 21st International Symposium on the Physical and Failure Analysis of Integrated Circuits (IPFA) Conference Start Date: 2014, June 30 Conference End Date: 2014, July 4 Conference Location: Marina Bay Sands, Singapore Biological synaptic behavior in terms of long term potentiation has been observed in papain-based (plant protein) memory devices (memristors) for the first time. Improvement in long term potentiation depends on pulse amplitude and width (duration). Continuous/repetitive dc voltage sweep leads to an increase in memristor conductivity leading to a long term memory in the 'learning' processes. [PUBLICATION ABSTRACT]
